>>8908546 (LB) RE: Read-out of President's call with Indonesian leader
What the read-out does not mention is the fact that [this morning I got a What's-App message from close friend in Jakarta] Indonesia today [last night our time] closed down all airports and train stations, including Soekarno-Hatta (Cendarang) International A/P till June 1.
Maybe ops being undertaken during cover of both Ramadan and Covid-19?
Jakarta has been under the same stay-at-home orders as most of the rest of the world for the past month + ...
N.B. the lines of people crammed together, seeking their ticket refunds, yet the govt "reason" for cancelling all travel is to discourage the spread of CV-19 by people returning, as usual, to their ancestral homes/villages AT THE END of Ramadan (Eid al-Fitr: May 23).
